Friday Night Speculation

Hot weather and limited irrigation should ensure a fast surface for Canterbury Park's evening meet. Find the front from a wide draw at the sprint course is a great setup, and my eye was drawn to a lightly raced Snowden resumer in Race 4 at 8.30pm.

Secret Trail was not disgraced in 3 springtime assignments. First up she trailed a red-hot Raphael's Cat in slick figures on this circuit before facing the breeze in the death seat against her own sex at Warwick Farm. Finally she found another deep task midweek at Rosehill, again in sparkling figures.

This time she is set to control the pace against her mainly male rivals. A filly around the circle. 2 to 1 and I'll bet.
